I've used a couple Brambleberry scents, some peak and Natures Garden. I know that NG is CHEAP but at this point I've tried 5 of their scents and 3 of them have really accelerated my soap to the point where I've had to scoop some of the soap to put into my molds. I think that I like Peak the best so far. What about you?
Who do you prefer to use for FO's?

I actually really like NG but have never bought from Peak or Bramble Berry. Have you ever tried Elements Bath & Body? My main three are: NG, Elements Bath & Body and Candles and Supplies <---- cheap, good fragrances and super fast shipping for me. If I order today it will be here tomorrow 
That's one of the positives about NG for me....they are only a state away and have fast shipping, I get my stuff the next day as well. You don't have issues with acceleration with their FO's? Maybe I just got a bit unlucky with a couple that I chose? I haven't tried Elements Bath & Body or Candles and Supplies, I'll check them both out!
I will have to pay more attention to see if the ones that accelerate are mostly my NG's. Acceleration was never a concern to me until recently because I was doing all HP soap and not worrying about having to pour until after the cook so I really didn't paid attention to acceleration (only seizing). NOW... I am addicted to the CP method and am definetly paying attention to what accelerates so I will take note and see if NG gives me trouble.
Right now I'm mainly using Peak FOs because they of the 50% off sale a few weeks ago.
Have you looked on the Scent Review Chart?

I'm one of those whose FO shopping habits are not exclusive to only one vendor. I buy my FOs from all over if they have what I'm looking for. But first I check them out here to weed out any potential troublemakers: http://soapscentreview.obisoap.ca/
After you've been soaping for awhile, you'll find out that accelerating FOs are not exclusive to a single supplier. Every supplier I've ever used (and I've used a lot- yes- I'm a FoHo ) has wonderful FOs that behave very well and other FOs that you end up shaking your stickblender at in frustration. 
That's why I love the link above so much. It's a big help in enabling me to research the experiences others have had with soaping certain FOs before I decide to purchase or not.
